Coconut Ginger Cauliflower Pork

05/18/2014

Coconut Ginger Cauliflower Pork (grain free, soy free, paleo) | GrokGrub.comSomething about this Scallion and Coconut Rice with Pork recipe snagged my attention and wouldn’t let it go. But cauliflower is a great low-carb substitute for rice in my opinion, so I made that upgrade happen in my version: Coconut Ginger Cauliflower Pork. The result was a steaming, fragrant, savory bowl of real food deliciousness. I enjoyed it for dinner and again for a late-night snack, but it would be great as an unconventional breakfast, as well. It’s a streamlined, single-skillet preparation and makes quite enough for two.

      Absolutely, peanuts or any cashews would work well.

    Yummy. I added a carrot with the cauliflower in the food processor. I also used a bit of soy sauce with the fish sauce. I think any added veg would be great, it’s like fried rice, so mushrooms and peas! I also used crushed dry roasted cashews on top instead of sesame seeds. Thanks

    I recently started getting meat delivery from butcherbox.com and I had a package of ground pork which I had defrosted…but I had no clue what to do with it. After getting home late from work, I just could not stomach ordering takeout. A quick search of the interwebs for paleo ground pork recipes led me to this. I picked this recipe because it was quick and easy, and I actually had most of the ingredients on hand. I didn’t have scallions or black sesames seeds. I added in some shiitake mushrooms,threw in a couple of handfuls of baby spinach and then topped each serving with a fried egg. Super yum. The recipe was declared a keeper by my husband – who went back for seconds. He ended the meal saying ” I hope you make this again”

    I think I will.

    Thank you!!!!!

    Thought this recipe was really good but was just missing another flavor, I ended up using 2 tbsp of green curry paste and a pinch of chili flakes with it and it was to die for. It’s going into the rotation!

    Do you recommend canned coconut milk or the boxed type, which is a bit thinner, I believe?
